The Color Run

Today we participated in the Color Run...a 5K Fundraiser to benefit Hugo and Oneka Elementary schools. Rowan fundraised $250 dollars and earned some fun swag for the run: sunglasses, sweatband, wiper glasses, wig, a backpack, and 8 color packets. She wouldn't wear the wig, so Ed helped her out!

AFTER
Rowan and I finished the run in 36 minutes! She did a great job running and occasionally walking. We didn't finish as a family because she took off running, and I didn't want her to finish alone, so I caught up to her and finished with her. We started in waves...and Crystal and Elaina started in wave 1 and us in 2 or 3...so we eventually caught up to them!
Many of our neighbors also participated...so here is our group together.
Rowan and Eddie used any left over color at the end...and even rolled in the street to pick up some more!
The neighborhood kids...
